Perez Hilton and I go way back: Last Halloween, a friend and I dressed up as Amy Winehouse and the Queen of All Media himself and ended up plastered all over his website (warning: You might never think of me the same way after seeing this).

Read my exclusive interview with Perez, after the jump...

The book gives readers the inside track to becoming "A hilton" (lowercase "l"), AKA "people we confuse with celebrities": Pimp out your famous kids, give a fierce mug shot, use your fabulousness for good...all great pieces of advice, but let's be honest, I wanted to know more about the FASHION! Here you have it, ladies!

STF: What's the worst fashion mistake people make on the red carpet? Your advice for avoiding it?

Perez Hilton:Playing it safe! Don't be afraid to look bad! Being on the worst dressed list is better than not being on any list at all! We remember the good, obviously, and the hideous. The boring, safe choices never stand out. Take risks! Be original. Trust your instincts. And, most importantly, have fun. It's just fashion!STF: How can a star be immune to your criticism?

PH: Look good all the time. Or be Dita Von Teese!

STF: What's the best piece of fashion advice you've ever gotten?

PH: Black is slimming. And so are layers and nice, long vertical stripes. They're obvious tips, but they work!

STF: What should an aspiring hilton wear? What's the mark of a true hilton?

PH: An aspiring hilton should wear no panties. The mark of a true hilton is a hairless vagina. Duh!

STF: What's your favorite book of all time (aside from your own, of course)...

PH: Jon Stewart's "America." My book is like the Hollywood version of that.

STF: Who are your favorite hiltons right this moment? Who has the capacity to transcend hilton-ism for true celebrity?

PH: My favorite hilton of the moment is ME! One of the steps to becoming a hilton is "Be A Skinny Bitch." And I have! I follow my own advice! I'm well on my way to the C list now!
